When you say hard resetting, do you mean a hard reset as in rebooting it or a system restore?

II know you can upgrade the flash drive storage by micro soldering a new chip, but that’s a difficult process. Apple’s memory management and iOS would probably not take advantage of the extra ram as it’s very efficient as is. What are you trying to accomplish? The iPad Pro is already a very quick device and iPads and iPhones have never been fast because of the amount of ram. It’s all about the processor.

The only way to reset anything is through software. Removing the battery wont do anything towards removing the pin. What methods have you tried to wipe the device?

Is there a foam pad on the battery connector? A lot of replacement batteries make this pad too thick and it causes your metal bracket over the battery connector to not sit flush. Remove that foam piece. The 3d touch barely working is the screen itself. Unless you purchased an original refurbished replacement screen your results will vary on 3d touch functionality. I’ve seen where the best aftermarket screens will still give me mixed results from working perfectly to being too sensitive or flat out not working.

More than likely it’s still the backlight filter. To test that turn it on and let it go black then shine a flashlight on the screen. If you see an image, it’s the backlight filter.

Youll need to replace the screen. Here’s a guide. If you buy a screen with the frame, itll be much easier. Reemplazo del ensamblaje de pantalla de Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

Were all the small parts in it too such as charge port and power button cable etc? These parts either are bad from the beginning or can go bad easily. Are there any spots on the old housing where there is any type of grounding pad or covering that should have been transferred and wasnt?

Since you have the charge port working, make sure the battery has a charge and replace the charge port again with the old not working one (I know it’s not ideal) and if it doesnt make that noise then its the new charge port causing some ground or short.

The most obvious one I believe is the sim tray slot. Eject your sim card and shine a light down it and see if it’s pink or not. There are usually others around the top of the phone as well. If the sim slot doesnt show water damage, that doesnt mean other indicators arent pink it just means the liquid didnt reach that spot.
